its actually pretty good, i like that its a bit heavier and the vocals are set back a little more in the mix compared to the usual(thats just first-listen thoughts), should also mention that it almost put me to sleep it was so relaxingly good. Usually when music sucks it makes me all tense and whatnot, this was good though. dude...sooo fucking true what you said...i guess i must have been not paying too much attention when i gave it a 1st listen since i usually listen to music when i work on school shit...but this album flows so smoothly right now!!!

Yeah it really does. The vocals and music is waay different than i was expecting. It almost sounds like they're in drop A or something now, its got more of a bloodbath sound i kind of noticed, especially with the lowered tone vocals and the guitar effects and melodies on some parts.

IT WAS GREAT!!!!!!!!! Might as well tell you about it......
The show was an impressive 4 hours long. First band started just before 8pm, The Absence, which was just some melodic death metal that didnt do much for me. Second band Belphegor was ok considering i only heard one song from them before this (which i didnt like much). THEN Ensiferum came on and the crowd went crazy, we went down to the stage and watched. Finally, Amon Amarth came on and the 2/3rd full auditorium ended up being completely packed. They played a couple from the new album and some from the old, and for an encore ended up coming back on for 2 more songs, finishing with cry of the blackbird and fate of norns, which ended the show at around 12am. I ended up with a signed poster and got to talk to them briefly and bought a shirt. I took a couple stage pics which i'll post a bit later after i get them off the camera.

i_have_27_frets or something like that is his name. i quite liked them.
as for shows, i'm a bit bored of live stuff at the moment. unless its a really small show with one guy pouring his heart out on the level of the audience. that to me is a good show.
